We describe the Paraflow system for connecting heterogeneous computing services together into a flexible and efficient data-mining metacomputer. There are three levels of parallel...
Developers frequently use inefficient code sequences that could be fixed by simple patches. These inefficient code sequences can cause significant performance degradation and ...

Many sensor nodes contain resource constrained microcontrollers where user level applications, operating system components, and device drivers share a single address space with no...
The SPIN model checker and its specification language Promela have been used extensively in industry and academia to check logical properties of distributed algorithms and protoc...
